(1785–1863) and Wilhelm Grimm (1786–1859), were German academics,
linguists, cultural researchers, lexicographers and authors – who
together specialised in collecting and publishing folklore during the
nineteenth century. The popularity of their collected tales has
endured well; they have been translated into more than 100 languages,
and remain in print in the present day.Pook Press celebrates the great
‘Golden Age of Illustration‘ in children’s literature – a
period of unparalleled excellence in book illustration from the 1880s
to the 1930s. Our collection showcases classic fairy tales,
children’s stories, and the work of some of the most celebrated
artists, illustrators and authors.
